I do hear many say that they have good wings.
There is no excuse to go to a place where the girls are barely dressed and they are not selling just hot wings if you now what I mean.
Didn't men try to get hired and they wouldn't let them. If it was just about the hot wings why wouldn't they hire men?

By the way,
the article I read said that it was a southern baptist minister who is behind this.
I have heard in the past that another southern baptist minister and some deacons attended hooters.
Being a southern baptist, this sickens me.

There a many places that pastors and deacons frequent that are far worse than this. But, I think this is the wrong place to reach the unchurched. Who wouldn't want to be saved if you could go to places like Hooters with your pastor. There are other places to find the unchurched and some of them got some great wings.

14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,

18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

1 Corinthians 6:12-20
12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

14 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.

15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

I'm all for Evanglism. However, I am not in favor for risking one's personal walk with the Lord, by going into the sestpole of SIN to do it! If those people wanna know about Christ, let them come to a Church and find him! or at least hold that thing in a more acceptable place.

sounds like a excuse to sin to me. and legit'ized by putting God's name on it.

Hooters is no Wolfgang Puck's, but it's not exactly a "sestpole" of sin (I presume you're referring to a "sespool" of sin). The waitresses there wear skimpy outfits. No nudity, or anything else. Now, I'm not saying we can take our kids there, and I'm not in any way condoning or excusing the nature of the business, but it's not akin to a strip club or anything of the sorts. A pub or bar & grill, sure, but a strip club? No.

On that note, many would also take issue to someone holding a bible study at a bar & grill, pub, sports bar, etc. Many would also refer to such an establishment as a sespool of sin. To that, I would say the same thing: whatever floats their boat. If they win souls, then God bless 'em. I wouldn't condone or excuse the business, but wouldn't put it on the same level as a strip club.

OTOH, Jesus shared the Gospel to a den of thieves and sinners. Why should we avoid the same?
